Title: The Maple Leaf Legacy Project Keeps Growing

Snippet: I first became aware of the Maple Leaf Legacy Project (MLLP) about ten years ago. At the time I had been researching local veterans and stumbled upon the unique website. If memory serves me correctly, it was an overly bright, a little disorganised, but inspiring database of information that didn’t download correctly if you had an old computer or were on slow dial-up service.

Still, I visited often to see if it held information I sought, and I shared it with many other researchers who had ancestors in the military killed during wartime. After all, it was the information that was important, not the way it was displayed.
